Hough High just delivered a defensive masterclass, shutting out Millbrook 21-0 to claim their first-ever NCHSAA 8A state title at Kenan Stadium. The Huskies’ defense was relentless—allowing just 26 rushing yards and 96 passing yards, and forcing Millbrook to miss every chance after special teams mishaps. Standouts like Ryan Peterson, L.J. Porter, and Jackson Heath racked up tackles, while QB Ethan Royal sealed the win with a late 74-yard touchdown run. With so many future college stars on the field, what does this mean for North Carolina high school football? Let’s talk about the impact! #Sports #Football #NCHSAA
